From Russia With Love

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Ivan Demidov is Riding the Roller Coaster Here on Day 2
Ivan Demidov is Riding the Roller Coaster Here on Day 2

Two consecutive hands saw Ivan Demidov's stack shattered and rebuilt in short order.

First, Demidov opened for 7,000 and then called Stephen Chidwick's three-bet of 17,500 to take a flop of {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}. Both players checked the baby card board, but when the {a-Hearts} turned, Demidov check-called a bet of 25,000. The {q-Spades} then completed the board on the river, and Demidov checked for a third time.

When Chidwick fired a bet of 75,000 forward, the Russian pro flatted and turned over his {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} for top two pair. Unfortunately for Demidov, Chidwick held the {K-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for trips on the flop, and he strung Demidov along the whole way.

On the very next deal, however, the Demidov managed to get his last 157,000 into the middle holding {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Day 1 chip leader Nick Schwarmann looked him up with {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}. When the board ran out a clean {9-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs} for Demidov, the Russian's snowmen had survived, giving him a crucial double to more than rebound from his previous loss.

Dragon's Breath

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
David "The Dragon" Pham is Breathing Fire Here On Day 2
David "The Dragon" Pham is Breathing Fire Here On Day 2

After being crippled with pocket aces on an earlier hand, David "The Dragon" Pham moved his last 37,800 into the middle with {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, but he was quickly called by Glynn Beebe and his {K-Hearts}{j-Spades}.

When the flop fell {6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{k-Spades}, Pham's luck appeared to have run out, but the {8-Hearts} on the turn provided him with a lifeline.

River: {Q-Clubs}

After using a miracle suckout to end Day 1 with a big stack, and losing those chips to another brutal beat here today, Pham has rode the roller coaster known as shorthanded NLH play to stabilize himself.

Waters are now Less Sharky

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Maria Ho and Michael Benvenuti have both lost their stacks and finished in 26th and 25th place respectively.

Rosen Doubles Up

Level 15 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Donnie Peters just told us a hand that saw Jamie Rosen double up through David Pham, again.

Earlier today Rosen got very lucky on the river again Pham. Well that {A-}{J-} just came good again.

Pham opened to 7,000 on the button, Rosen three-bet to 20,000 and Pham four-bet to 47,000. Rosen shoved for 126,300 and Pham instantly called.

Pham opened a pair of aces to Rosen's {A-}{J-} and Rosen looked dead and buried. That was until th eboard ran out {j-}{j-}{5-}{6-}{8-} to double Rosen up.

The {Q-Spades} turn was checked by Benvenuti, who then folded when Uribe made it 16,500 to play.
